Alive@5 being reborn at Riverton City Park this Wednesday

(Riverton, Wyo.) – It’s a program that has been dormant for a decade or more. But following action by the Riverton City Council this past week, Alive@5 returns to City Park from 5 to 8 pm on Wednesday evening.

The event is a family-centered evening with food vendors, bouncy houses, live music, a BBQ and a Beer Garden.

“We promised the city council that we would do it right. They were hesitant to allow us to serve beer at city park, but it will be in a controlled environment. It’ll be in a fenced area and we’ll do it responsibly,” said Riverton Chamber of Commerce Manager Jim Davis. He said there is a two beer maximum “The more we use the park, the fewer problems we’ll have there, and this is our way to help bring activities back to the park.”

The event is open to the public. In addition to the bounce houses, there will be kids games, Davis said.
